Power Modes

The rc_visard NG comes with two different power modes: 15 W and 25 W. By default, the device uses the 15 W mode, which is a good compromise between performance and hardware temperature.

If faster run times are required, the power mode can be switched to 25 W. When using the 25 W mode, the housing temperature can increase above 60°, depending on on environmental temperature and actual use, so that the LED might start flashing red to indicate the high temperature (see LED colors).

The power mode can be set either via the Web GUI under System ‣ Power Mode, or by using the REST-API interface as follows:

PUT http://<host>/api/v2/system/power_mode?mode=<15W,25W>
